Gov. Newsom’s revised 2026–27 budget proposal reinforces the importance of investing in the University of California. We’re encouraged to see the Assembly recognize higher education as a priority in its budget roadmap, but continued advocacy is critical
as budget negotiations continue.

Sustained investment in UC is essential to our shared goals of expanding enrollment and keeping HigherEd accessible for the next generation of Californians.

Urge legislators to fully fund the Compact agreement. See campaign link on https://linktr.ee/ucsbstaff.
